While this all happened on the East Coast in lefty enclaves, it is indicative of a much larger problem.
Democrat/leftist voters are just fine with endorsing political violence. They will vote for whoever has the D by their name, and will crawl over broken glass to do it. They voted overwhelmingly for a candidate who wished his opponent’s children dead.
So, what’s the answer? The only way forward for us is to stop letting perfection being the enemy of good enough. Staying home and not voting because you only agree with about 60% of a R candidate isn’t going to do anything but get the D elected.
They Ds faced no consequences for their celebration of Charlie Kirk’s murder. They actually blamed it on the assassin being a Republican and got away with it. There was no consequence for the leftist who tried to kill ICE officials and ended up killing illegal immigrants.
The left is facing no consequences. They are emboldened. There’s only one way to resolve this, and we saw this on election day in ‘24: motivating turnout. There were people wearing trash bags on them while voting because the democrats called us trash. My wife, one voting age son, two minor daughters, and I all went to the polls together and prayed together before we went in.
Make no mistake. As soon as the democrats get 51 votes in the Senate, the filibuster is gone. They will pass gun control, increase taxes, spend even more into deficit, allow men in your daughters’ dressing rooms, silence your voice, and on and on.
Scott Pressler has the template. But it does no good if we don’t show up. I am going to get involved in my small county’s Republican Party to start registering voters and motivate turnout. We’re deep red, but the democrats are still working in our county. We can’t take anything for granted.
I don’t think its about the politics. Tucker Carlson predicted this after Trump won in 2016. Ray Dalio the hedge fund billionaire predicts a revolution. If politicians do not correct the fundamental disparity in our economy then elections are going to swing back far to the left. The gap between middle and low income households reflected by inflation when compared to the top echelons has only gotten worse. The stock market is at an all time high yet the Fed is cutting interest rates with inflation at “3 percent and growing” and we know the reality is much worse. We continue to fund and participate in foreign wars rather than building our own infrastructure. It’s not Trump’s fault and he has done a great job on immigration but if people can’t afford to pay for McDonalds or groceries anymore, which was a thread over the weekend on here then I don’t think it bodes well for the midterms. Why would kids vote for people that offer them minimum wage jobs where they cannot afford to eat when houses cost a million dollars. You’d be stupid not to opt for the free money versus being abused at a minimum wage job.
“They actually blamed it on the assassin being a Republican and got away with it.”
Only you did apparently....
That’s right YOU accepted that the gay, leftist shooter was a Republican.
WHY?
And why are you posting such on this forum?
